Applications are now open for the 2024 Next Generation Foresight Practitioners (NGFP) Fellowship. The fellowship is an opportunity for young professionals to have more support as they begin to explore the futures and foresight field. We know that being a futurist can be a lonely place, and a sort of practice that particularly young people do on the side of their daily jobs, and usually for free. The fellowship is a way to provide the next generation of futures and foresight enthusiasts with a platform to connect with like-minded people from around the world, receive mentorship and build foresight capability, participate in regional and sector-specific hubs, and access funding to develop their foresight projects. Fellows also have the opportunity to participate in highly relevant events in the futures and foresight field, and to be connected with today’s decision-makers at the highest levels.
Requirements
- Anyone between 18 and 35 years old, as well as those who are older, but have less than five years of experience using foresight.
- The NGFP is particularly enthusiastic about applications from those living in the Global South, and those working on the world’s most complex issues, or Foresight Transformation Mission
Funding
- At the beginning of the journey, each fellow receives a USD 1,000 prize to develop and accelerate their project.
- By the end of their one-year journey, all fellows have the chance to run for the Fellowship Main Prize, which consists of a more substantial grant (at least USD 10,000) and acknowledges those who made the most of their journey.
